Oh, and you need to check the anatomy of the hand. Do a google search for "bones of the hand"
Subject: Oh, and you need to check the anatomy of the hand. Do a google search for "bones of the hand".

Try this site, you can click on the bones of the hand and it will tell you what the bone is called.


http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/hand/anhand.htm


The trapezoid bone is a bone in the distal row of the carpus; it articulates with the second metacarpal.


The scaphoid bone is the largest bone of the proximal row of the carpus on the radial side, articulating with radius, lunate, capitate, trapzium, and trapezoid.


Please know what you are talking about before you try to be condescending.

Lenard splint?
Subject: Lenard splint?

This is a wound care note.  They use these splints often, and I have been spelling it Lenard because that's the spelling I found when I Googled it.  It's not in my Stedman's surgical equipment book or my Stedman's on line.  Now the doc spells is (like he's noticed it's misspelled), but spells it Lynard.  Nothing, but nothing medical comes up on Googling that spelling.  Does someone for for sure what this is and how to spell it?  Thanks in advance!
